Nope, No website...
He's not producing anyting so it is not odd.
Oh, sure he could put something simple up. Then it you just be a magnet for hate mail and attacks in various forms for not haveing a professional looking website. Not to mention why advertise something he does not have?

There seems to be some movement by him on the PV project, as the AW forums seem to indicate. It looks like after the last fiasco, he is taking his time and working privatly til he has something fully working to show. Unlike the failed, postponed and cancelled demos of proof of concept and WIP.

His biggest mistake was announcing the project in the first place. Not that he will not hear complains, strong ones, after he has something to show and sell.

@Gojirax

I'm not sure why it's apples and oranges. Bottomline is that the total cost have to be calculated! Most employees are no Amigas and are thus not capable of multitasking (building a website while still doing the job that's earning them (or should be earning) money: developing hardware). So the time being away from your normal work has to be calculated as well.

The $65k you spend on anti-spam/spy has to come from somewhere! You've got to have it before you can spent it and in normal business that means you first got to earn it.

Sure, Adam (or a friend) could do it on off-time but if you're honnest (even if the site is a given thing) and realistic, the site is worth the money quoted!

A digital business card is indeed easier and cheaper to produce (again, count the hours, even when given!) however still isn't for free!
Get a SAM, while you can! The new AMIGA is here!
